OREGON RELAYS (HIGH SCHOOL SECTIONS) CO-ED TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP FORMAT
-------------------------------------------------------
This is a co-ed team championship meet, meaning we want to find out who has the best overall team, girls and boys combined, from freshman to seniors.

-Team Format: Each of the 40 invited teams will be allowed 40 entries total. Since this is an overall co-ed team championship-style meet, you will want to bring your best combination of athletes, boys and/or girls. The number of events you want each of your athletes to do is up to the teams coach. *Example: Some teams may bring 10 athletes and compete them in 4 events each, while another team may bring 40 athletes and compete them in one event each.
--Relays count as 1 entry (as apposed to 4 entries).
--The overall team champions will result from the score of boys and girls combined.

-Scoring: The Oregon Relay high school sections will be scored like a normal championship-style meet. The top eight finishers in each event will be scored in the point format of 10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. The separate point totals for both boys and girls will be combined to determine the co-ed team champion.
*Example: Sherwood scores 40 team points on the boys side
60 team points on the girls side
their meet total would be 100 team points

-The Freshman Championships and the Wheelchair 100 and 1500 will count towards the team score and as entries.

-The individual athletes competing (athletes competing that are not on an invited team) in this meet will not be a factor in the team scoring process, but they will be fighting for individual prizes and places.
